Protecting Our History:
Partnering with the Museum of Danish America


The Danish Sisterhood of America has entrusted the Museum of Danish America with our precious historical items. In the Fall of 2016, a rental truckload of local lodge memorabilia, national board records and other priceless memories were delivered to the Museum in Elk Horn, Iowa. 


The Danish Sisterhood Digital Library Project is underway. The first batches of the documents from the Danish Sisterhood archive are being digitized and added to the Museum of Danish America's online digital library of Danish-American newspapers and journals. Once online, they will be accessible to anyone who wishes to browse through the history of the Danish Sisterhood through newsletters and ledgers from lodges across the United States.


For more information about the Danish Sisterhood historical items, see the Museum of Danish America website.
